How Does the Ultimate Home Build Prep Program™ Work?
Building a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make — and the fastest way to lose money, time, and peace of mind is to start the process unprepared. After more than 40 years designing, building, and guiding hundreds of clients through the construction process, we condensed everything we teach into a proven preparation system designed to eliminate the confusion, costly surprises, and delays most homeowners face.
Inside the program, you get full access to our complete step-by-step training series, downloadable checklists, templates, timelines, design worksheets, sample budgets, and detailed explanations of every phase of the build. You’ll also get video lessons where we walk you through real situations our clients face — the same insights that have saved some homeowners tens of thousands of dollars in preventable mistakes.
You’ll learn exactly what to do, when to do it, who to talk to, and what questions to ask, long before you hire a contractor. Whether you plan to be your own builder or hire one, this program gives you the knowledge, structure, and confidence to run your project properly from day one.
How Will the Ultimate Home Build Prep Program
Help Me Build With Confidence?
Don’t have a predictable plan for your home build — and worried about missing something important?
We give you the same structured preparation process that we use with our private clients before any project ever breaks ground. This includes detailed guidance on land selection, budgeting, timelines, utilities, permitting, design decisions, and contractor communication.
Not sure how to start and what questions to ask?
The very first step is helping you determine the right approach for your land, your budget, your lifestyle, and your home design. We walk you through each phase in order, showing you what to decide first, what can wait, and what absolutely must be addressed before meeting with any builder.
Already talked to a builder, but realizing you’re missing information, options, or clarity?
Most homeowners don’t know what they don’t know — and it often costs them tens of thousands in change orders, delays, and re-designs. Our program shows you how to properly prepare before you step into those meetings, so you show up informed, organized, and taken seriously. We help you avoid the biggest traps in the build process and ensure you’re making decisions at the right time, in the right order.
No matter your home size, budget, location, or whether you are owner building, hiring a builder, or hiring a foreman…
One or all of our training modules will help you move from uncertainty to clarity — and prepare you for a smooth, well-managed, cost-controlled home build.

Will This Work for My Home Build?
Absolutely.This works for:
First-time home builders
Owner-builders managing their own project
Families planning to hire a general contractor
Anyone designing a custom home
Homeowners building on raw land
Clients navigating HOAs, committees, or deed-restricted communities
Individuals building on a budget or planning a large-scale custom home
Anyone who wants to avoid costly mistakes, delays, and change orders
…and countless unique situations we’ve seen over 40+ years of real-world building and design experience.
While every property, budget, and lifestyle is different, the core principles of preparing properly before you build never change. That’s why this program works for so many people — it’s built on the proven processes, timelines, decisions, and planning steps that successful home builds rely on, regardless of size, style, or location.
Everything inside the program is based on decades of firsthand experience — the kind that has saved our clients tens of thousands of dollars, prevented delays, and eliminated problems before they ever showed up on a job site.
If you have a property (or are looking for one), a design in mind, and a desire to build confidently without unnecessary mistakes, this program will work for you — whether you’re building a modest home or a multimillion-dollar custom residence.

Plan The Work, Work The Plan
If you’ve scrolled this far and haven’t jumped in yet, that tells me one thing:
You’re interested… but you want to be sure you’re making the right decision.
And I respect that.
When it comes to building a home, guessing is expensive. One wrong assumption can cost you months of delays, thousands of dollars, or worse — dealing with a contractor nightmare you never saw coming.
That’s exactly why I built this program:
To give you clarity, confidence, and control long before you break ground.
Here’s the truth…
This system is built from 40+ years of real-world building experience, thousands of client questions, field-proven checklists, contractor scripts, budget frameworks, and the exact planning process I use with full-service clients.
And I want you to experience how powerful proper preparation truly is.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Who is this program for?
Anyone planning to build a home by yourself or with a builder — whether it’s your first time or your fifth. If you want to avoid costly mistakes, control your budget, understand contractors, and make confident decisions from the very beginning… this program is built for you.
2. I’m not ready to build yet. Should I still get this?
Yes. The earlier you prepare, the more money you save and the fewer surprises you run into later. Many clients use this program months or even years before their build to avoid mistakes that happen long before construction starts.
3. Is this just general information, or real step-by-step help?
This is real, practical, field-tested guidance created from 40+ years of experience. You get checklists, scripts, examples, worksheets, planning systems, and a clear “do this first, then this” breakdown — not generic advice you could find on YouTube.
4. Will this program help me if I'm hiring a builder or contractor?
Absolutely. Even if you’re hiring everything out, you still need to know what’s happening, when it should happen, and how to keep the project on track. This program shows you exactly what to ask, what to watch for, and how to avoid being taken advantage of.
5. What if I want to be my own builder?
Perfect — this program is designed to show you the realities of being an owner-builder, how to decide if it’s right for you, and how to manage subcontractors, schedules, budgets, and decisions.
6. How is this different from watching videos online?
Online videos give you random, inconsistent tips. This program gives you a complete preparation system built from real job-site experience, real clients, real problems, and real solutions — all organized in the correct order. PLUS YOU GET ACCESS TO WEEKLY LIVE Q&A SESSIONS.
7. Is this program difficult to follow?
Not at all. It’s designed for regular homeowners, not construction professionals. Everything is simplified, structured, and broken down into clear steps anyone can understand.
8. Will this save me money?
Yes — in most cases, a lot. Avoiding one mistake with land, contractors, scheduling, budgeting, or design can save thousands. The program helps you plan correctly so you don’t pay for errors later.
9. How do I access the program after purchase?
You get instant digital access immediately after checkout. No shipping, no delays — everything is ready for you to download and start using today.
10. Is there any upsell or hidden membership?
No. What you see is exactly what you get. No monthly fees, no required add-ons, no surprise charges. The only other potential expenses is if you would like other services by our team.
11. Can this help if I already started designing?
Yes. Most homeowners start the design phase without the right questions or preparation. This program will help you catch issues early, make better decisions, and avoid expensive design-phase changes.
12. Does the program cover dealing with HOAs or committees?
Yes — you get insider guidance on how HOAs and design committees work, what they care about, how to avoid delays, and how to navigate requirements without unnecessary frustration or costs.
13. What if I get overwhelmed?
No worries — everything is broken into small, manageable sections. You can go through it step-by-step, and revisit any part as many times as needed. We also have weekly live Q&A sessions available!!
14. Why is this priced so low?
Because proper preparation shouldn’t only be available to people spending $20k–$50k on full-service design or white-glove packages. This program gives everyday homeowners access to the same preparation frameworks I use with high-end clients — at a cost anyone can afford.
